Another good chapter. I'm a little worried that Draco being excluded will cause problems, but I'm sure Harry will make things right. :) Good job.

Very interesting story. I like the way our two favourite Slytherins act.

This story is developing, by far, into on of the best stories on this site. I have agree with you in that the best fics are definitely the ones that start off slightly AU with a small change occurring from the original story line, then snowballing into something entirely new as the story begins to take shape and characters choose different paths and develop from different situations and experiences.

I think you've got Potter's personality spot on and I love your resentful Draco who wants to discover his own path in live, independent from his father. To have Snape break from his one sided view of Harry and see past his preconceptions really opens him up as well. Snape came from a very similar background from Harry and its almost a shame that such a wall prevented him from ever seeing his student three-dimensionally in the original books. Such as in that scene when the two of them have to endure each other's company for Occulmancy lessons. Snape glimpses the horror's of Harry's abusive upbringing and thinks nothing about it. Harry, on the other hand, empathizes with the isolation Snape must have felt at the torment he got from his father and is horrified to think Snape could think he would take enjoyment out the same. For someone as analytical as Snape to not use this new information to reassess his least favorite student is absurd, but I guess hate blinds us to the truth.

Anyway, I just wanted you to know that I will be adding this story to my highly recommended list. I don't know if anyone ever views those things, but it will be on there just in case.

Keep up the great work!

(Also, just a note, I found it slightly confusing when, in the last chapter, Snape was talking about Potter's dark object. I had no idea what he was referring to or how much time had passed when you opened the chapter with it. It wasn't until much later that I realized what it was. I know that bit was from Snape's pov so the object needs to remain unknown, but with the lack of time frame on top of it, I just felt out of place like I missed a chapter or something. Other than that, great stuff. ^^)

Aww, I can't believe Harry left Draco behind...well I can....anyways, I really love how Harry is more of a real character in this story already than he was by the fourth book. He didn't actually have real emotions until Sirius die, I think it's cool how you can do that. Draco's going to be so upset when he find's out that they left him. Thats okay. I have faith in happy endings. You've never disappointed me before :3

First of all, have a good New Year, and lots of joy and happiness on your path!

I really like this story.
I enjoy the idea of AU right in the middle of canon, that

Sooo need chapter 5!! I wonder if Draco followed?

MWAHWAEhweahahaa... that was great, Draco and his temper, saving the day. Yay!!

I love the story. I've never actually thought of Snape as cool, before ^^

Happy New Year! This time I've decided to start reviewing my favourite author. So far this story seems very exiting.
